Some books that I would like is some more of the Gone Series By Michael Grant, I’m almost finished with Plague and just bought Fear I would like it if you could add the whole series or also some more young adult books that y’all might recommend. Thank You, A student from a school!

I think this app WOULD be great if there was actually some books. And all those books are to high level for me! If I want to actually want to have to a use for this app, I would DEFINITELY need more books

Different icon please....

I love the new features of this app, it is much easier to access for students. However, I use overdrive with grades 6 through 12, and the new icon you’ve chosen is rather childish and young looking... will be hard to ‘sell’ to teenagers.

Love it!

So much easier that the plain old overdrive app. Find and checking out books is so easy! I love it, and my students do as well!

Couldn’t find my school

I don’t really know if the app actually works because I didn’t get that far. So I’m not judging unfairly. Any-who, when I found my school it said “Sorry, there was an error. Please try again later.” So I did but it still didn’t work

Great app, bring back the original icon

Love the new app, but the new icon is very childish. Tough sell to middle school students.

Sora is the greatest reading app ever
